Khmu Quick Facts:
-Indigenous inhabitants of Northern Laos
-3% Christian population out of 525,000
-Settled agriculturalists who practice  swidden farming
-Found mainly in the Luang Prabang and  Xieng Khouang Provinces of Laos
On 17th May, 9 of the 12 Khmu Christian prisoners were released.  The remaining 3 are all key church leaders. Mr. S and Mrs. T and their 2 children had an accident on their motor bike on the way to church.  Thankfully they only had minor cuts and bruises. Apart from the shock, the doctor says the unborn baby is fine, and the bike has been fixed.  Please continue to pray for the release of the 3 remaining Khmu prisoners in a northern province and for the Khmu Christian families evicted from their village recently.  In a recent letter they said "no matter whatever happens to us, we will not deny Christ. Jesus is our Lord, even though if we do not have rice fields to farm for the whole year because everything was left behind, we still want to follow Jesus. We don't have rice to eat, house to stay, and no land to farm but we believe that God will take care of us. But please pray for us and remember us."  They have only been believers for about 2 years.
